Spain outmaneuvered a disconnected USWNT and revealed midfield problems.

Wyatt and Jonah watch as Spain scores again against the USWNT.

The Los Angeles Times, October, 2022, said it well…

PAMPLONA, Spain — Laia Codina and Esther González both scored for Spain in a 2-0 victory Tuesday over the U.S. women’s national team, which lost a second straight game for the first time in more than five years.

Codina scored in the 39th minute. It was the first goal off a set piece that the United States had conceded since last summer’s Tokyo Olympics. Gonzalez added a goal in the 72nd.

The United States hadn’t lost two straight since the March 2017 SheBelieves Cup, when the team lost consecutive games to England and France.
